A gradual but inevitable descent into cricket-based loathing and bile.

The Two Halves Of Mitchell Johnson

With it being a rare non-cricketing week (the Champions League T20 doesn’t count unless Somerset win it) we took the opportunity to have a look at the career of Mitchell Johnson. Warning: contains a picture that his mum may find offensive

Every Run And Wicket In The 2011 County Championship

With the County Championship season now over, we spent a bit of time looking at charts and making snide comments about ex-England pacemen.

Milestones

Back in July we set out some milestones that English players had either reached or had in their sights. Well we are pleased to report a few more… Starting with the batting, Kevin Pietersen has now overtaken his captain in terms of Test match runs, having scored 6,361 compared with Andrew Strauss’s tally of 6.340.

No Space In A Four-Man Attack, Broadly Speaking

With England debating the selection between Stuart Broad and Tim Bresnan for Thursday’s series opener against India, we at 51allout wanted to look purely at the numbers behind the former’s career and form, to see if we could find some justification one way or another.

The England Form Guide or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Numbers

A short while back we looked at the idea of using a ten-innings rolling average to look at a player’s ‘form’, as opposed to their career average, which is more a measure of overall ‘quality’. Here we’ll use this idea to have a look at England’s current top-order batsmen.
